Figures that everything would be going swell until I reached the rendering process. So, it looks like my move to DaVinciResolve won't be secured until this rendering is dealt with. I've stayed up past 5am attempting to sort out this mess, only to have the same audio bug each time, even though when ordering the video to render only this bit in particular, it works perfectly fine.
Apologies for the delay, but my sleep schedule is already screwed, and I don't want to make things even worse. Rest assured the video is completed, and just needs to leave my Timeline.
Best wishes,
